Quick Install
Automated & IDE SetupCopy the AI prompt to install this server into Claude Code, Cursor, or another agent — or use 1-click editor setup below.
One-click editor setup isn’t available for this listing yet — we don’t have a confirmed install command, and we’d rather show nothing than point your editor at the wrong package or host. Follow the project’s own setup instructions, linked above.
Manual Client & Custom JSON ConfigExpand JSON ▾
No confirmed setup config for this listing yet. We only publish a config block when the install details come from the project itself — its README, its docs, or a verified owner. We haven’t found those for epitaxy, and we’d rather show nothing than a guess you’d paste into your client. Follow the project’s own setup instructions for the current steps.
Documentation Overview
epitaxy
mcp-name: xyz.crossgrain/epitaxy
Federal drug shortages and recalls, joined to the federal contracts that buy those drugs. One call, no signup.
What it claims: this government supplier has an active FDA shortage or recall. What it does not claim: that a specific contract supplies a specific drug. Federal contract descriptions average 47 characters and almost never name the drug, so we say so instead of pretending otherwise.

Read the confidence field, always
| value | meaning |
|---|---|
exact | match on a shared identifier, here an NDC inside FDA data |
probable | normalized company name, or a drug name token in the contract text |
weak | anything softer, an indication only |
Matching on both company and drug at once is not promoted to
exact. Cross source joins are never exact, because FDA and
USAspending share no identifier. Anyone claiming otherwise has a
different source or is guessing.
Free tier
Works forever, no key, no signup. Returns at most 20 rows, without the
evidence field, without weak matches, and with data delayed by 24
hours. Nothing is stored: no counters, no IP addresses. If a version
that old does not exist yet, you get the oldest one available, so the
free tier is never empty while data exists.
Addressing
These two addresses are the same segment and both work permanently:
Later segments arrive as /devices/v1/..., /food/v1/... and so on. A
path whose segment is reserved but not live yet answers 404 with
segment_not_live, it never returns another segment's data. An address
that has been published is never withdrawn.
